That should be relatively straightforward from link, above.I am having trouble understanding a few things with my version of Photoshop, CS5.1. Lastly, you'll need to install the DNG Converter 7.1 just to get the newer camera profiles for the newer plug-in. Once you have found the Elements 10 folder with the existing Camera Raw.8bi, rename that to Camera Raw.8bi_bak just in case what you're doing doesn't work and you need to rename it back.įinally copy the new Camera Raw.8bi you renamed from 1003, above, into that folder with the older Elements Camera Raw.8bi_bak you just renamed. If you're running a 32-bit version of Windows then the path will just say Program Files but be for 32-bit software. The "Program Files" in the path on my 64-bit Windows 10 means this is the 64-bit version of software and your Elements is likely under Program Files (x86) but the rest of the path may be similar to mine. I am not sure where that is on such an older Elements, but for the oldest Elements I have which is 14, it is: Now go to the Elements plug-in folder where the existing, older Camera Raw.8bi resides. Notice that it's in another zip inside the original zip:Įxtract that 1003 file somewhere. These instructions are for Windows, and make sure Elements is closed when you do this:ĭownload the Camera Raw 7.1 installer zip, extract it's contents to a folder, then find the 1003 file that is actually the camera raw plug-in. You will need both:ĪCR 7.1 and DNG Converter 7.1 Now Available You can find a link to a ZIP of the ACR 7.1 installer for Photoshop, here, as well as the DNG Converter 7.1. I'm sure 9 and 10 won't work with PSE10 but it's possible that documentation isn't valid or PSE10 has some lax enforcement and 7.1 will work so now you need a ACR 7.1 installer. I don't know one way or the other but Adobe has been slowly converting many of their perpetual license versions to subscription-only versions so it could happen to PSE, too.Īdobe's site says that 6.7 is the last ACR version for PSE10 and another page says you need ACR 7.1 to work with the D800. Now one thing that could be a complication would be if Adobe decides they want to make PSE subscription only and there isn't another perpetual-license PSE available after the current version. If you do think you'd want to pay for the latest PSE version then use the DNG Converter until the NEXT PSE version becomes available, probably in a couple months, and that version should work ok. If you share what camera model as Peru Bob asked for, then more precise advice can be given, but generally the DNG Converter option should work and maybe paying for the latest PSE would be another option unless your camera is very new and released after the last ACR update for the current PSE 2018. The other option would normally be to pay for a new PSE version, where 2018 is the newest version, however it's ACR version is only updatable to an ACR version released some months ago so if your camera is very newly released, then you cannot even update PSE 2018 to work with it and the DNG Converter would be the only option. You can find the newest DNG Converter, here: You'd want to make sure your compatibility options were set in the DNG Converter to something earlier than 7.1 which is newer than 6.7 because 7.1 is the default conversion if you don't change it. If your camera model was first available for sale after early 2012 then raws from it cannot be read by ACR 6.7.Īssuming your camera is newer than was supported by ACR 6.7, a free option would be to use the current DNG Converter (or at least one 6.7 or newer) to convert your camera's raws to DNGs, one folder at a time, and then those DNGs but not the original raws, could be opened by the ACR that your older PSE10 uses. As such, PSE10's last ACR update was 6.7 May 1, 2012. Adobe only updates their current version of each software product for new cameras.
